Frequently asked Questions & Prices

HOW FAR AHEAD SHALL I BOOKMY WEDDING FLOWERS OR SPECIAL EVENT WITH YOU?

We recommend booking with us 1 year ahead of the Big Day. This gives us time to source out any special requests you may have, and ensures that we book your wedding date into our busy schedule. We can still work with you up to 6 months ahead of the event. Check out our Wedding-a-go-go Packages if you are in a hurry.

IS A DEPOSIT REQUIRED ?

Yes, we ask for a $100.00 deposit. Four months before your Wedding, we would like you to pay 50% of your remaining balance, and the remaining 50% should be paid the week before your Wedding.

I HAVE AN OUTDOOR WEDDING CEREMONY, AND WILL NEED CUSTOM TWIG GARLANDS and WREATHS, DO YOU DESIGN THESE?

We can make any length of garland for you, out of Birch, fresh Salal leaves,fresh Magnolia leaves, or Evergreens. Twig garlands have to be ordered before the trees leaf out. This means you should order in Jan. Feb. and maybe March... Evrgreen garlands will only be available after we have had 2 killing frosts, so from October onwards, depending on the weather. Need Twigs? You can place an order for twigs, we may have Birch or red osier dogwood. Wreaths with custom monograms can be ordered.

WHAT SHOULD I BUDGET FOR WEDDING FLOWERS?

We have 3 Packages which are intended to assist you in Budgeting. They are a guideline, and subject to change. Of course, if you add additional items into your order, your total price will change.

These prices are meant as a Guide, every Wedding is Unique, and prices may change.
